Jacob Elordi and Kendall Jenner have further cemented their status as one of Hollywood's hottest new couples with a PDA-packed after-dinner display this week. The 28-year-old actor and the 30-year-old supermodel, who recently enjoyed a romantic break to Hawaii, looked smitten as they headed out in Santa Barbara on Sunday, both wearing matching black outfits.
Affectionate Gestures
Euphoria star Elordi couldn't keep his hands off Jenner, placing an affectionate hand on the back of her neck as they waited for their car. The Oscar nominee was also pictured wrapping an arm around the reality star as they chatted with friends. A casual Elordi gave Jenner his full attention as they stared into one another's eyes, their romance becoming increasingly public.
Recent Public Appearances
Earlier this month, the new couple were seen drinking rose on the beach in Hawaii, marking their first public sighting together since news of their relationship emerged. They were later seen on a giddy double date with Jenner's sister Kylie, 28, and her boyfriend of three years, Oscar nominee Timothee Chalamet, 30.
Jenner and Elordi were first romantically linked after they were seen 'making out and all over each other' during Justin Bieber's post-show party at Coachella last month. A source told the Daily Mail that Kylie had played matchmaker.
Matchmaker Kylie Jenner
'Kylie was around Jacob a lot during Timothee's award season marathon because Jacob was nominated for Frankenstein and Timothee was nominated for Marty Supreme,' the source revealed. 'Kylie is the alpha sister and pushed Kenny to start a romance with Jacob because she wanted to set up double dates with Timothee.'
Jenner and Elordi have been friendly for years. Elordi attended Jenner's 2022 birthday bash and they were seen locked in conversation at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in March, which followed Elordi's Best Supporting Actor award loss for his role in Frankenstein.
Previous Relationships
Elordi has been linked to several love interests over the years. He memorably dated his The Kissing Booth co-star Joey King for a year before their relationship ended in 2018. He then moved onto Euphoria co-star Zendaya, with the pair seen kissing in early 2020. Next up was Cindy Crawford's supermodel daughter, Kaia Gerber, whom he dated for a year until late 2021. Most recently, the Wuthering Heights star had a highly publicized several-year on-off romance with Lori Loughlin's influencer daughter Olivia Jade Giannulli, which ended in 2025.
For her part, Jenner has enjoyed a string of famous boyfriends, including professional athletes Devin Booker and Ben Simmons, as well as rapper Bad Bunny.
